About Kingsford Early Learning Centre

Kingsford Early Learning Centre caters to children aged 6 weeks to 5 years in a safe, secure and nurturing learning environment. Guided by experienced educators, the children participate in a wide range of activities that support their holistic development. This helps to lay the foundations of learning that the children will carry with them into their school years and beyond.

The indoor spaces at the centre are designed to meet the different needs of the children and suit a wide variety of learning styles. From large group activities to small group experiences, the children can also enjoy individual play and quiet time. There is never a dull moment as the children play and learn together.

The outdoor area is similarly well resourced, with space for the children to run and explore. Large shade sails provide protection from the sun as the children go on imaginative adventures in the beautiful outdoors.

Located a short walk from UNSW, the centre has bus stops at the door making it convenient and accessible. Parents can also use the onsite car park at drop off and pick up. Why not book a tour of this warm and homelike centre today?

Truly Exceptional Early Learning Centre – Deeply Grateful for the Journey! Our daughter joined this centre at just 9 months old and stayed until 26 months, and we couldn’t have asked for a better start to her early years. If not for our interstate move, we would have happily continued with them for much longer. From the very beginning, the team supported her through constant transitions—milk changes, evolving sleep routines, and her day‑to‑day developmental needs—with remarkable patience and care. Every morning and evening, the handover conversations were warm, thoughtful, and detailed, giving us reassurance and a clear picture of her day. The centre’s festivities and cultural events were always organised with such attention to detail, making each occasion feel meaningful for both children and parents. It created a wonderful sense of belonging. A very special recognition goes to Miss Jenny and Miss Dalin, who built exceptionally warm, secure, and loving relationships with our daughter. The bond she formed with them was beautiful to witness. Their nurturing presence, gentle guidance, and genuine affection made her feel safe, confident, and deeply connected. They will always hold a special place in our hearts. The centre is well-organised, hygienic, and beautifully maintained, with each room having its own safe and spacious play area. Apart from a few seasonal colds early on (particularly during winter), she rarely fell ill—and never anything serious—which speaks volumes about their hygiene standards and care. We’re also incredibly grateful for the wonderful administration team, especially Wendy and Gloria, whose consistent communication, warmth, and behind‑the‑scenes efforts kept everything running smoothly. Their leadership sets the tone for the entire centre. This early learning centre provided our daughter with security, joy, and a nurturing environment to grow in—and gave us, as parents, immense peace of mind. We will always look back on our time here with gratitude and love.

We are so thankful to KELC because our son is well fed, happy and nurtured by an extremely warm and thoughtful team of educators and staff. In case the care, activities, meals, large outdoor space and play areas aren't impressive enough, they also provide regular updates through an app and make-up vouchers for sick days. This is an amazing centre run by people who truly care and I'd recommend it to any parent looking in the area.

My daughter (now 21 months) has been attending KELC for the past 12 months, and she absolutely loves it. She has formed beautiful relationships with her educators, which has been so reassuring to see. The activities provided are both fun and developmentally appropriate, and the daily communication about her activities and needs is fantastic. I would highly recommend KELC to any family looking for a caring and engaging childcare centre.
